Now double those numbers as Generation 'X' hits it's 60's !
This is THE economic argument of the age.

Successive governments have feathered their own high earners nests for the last thirty years pandering to employers in exchange the employers wanted wages kept low which meant people could not only not afford to buy their homes but social housing was slowed in order for Managers and owners of corporations to increase their wealth and worth.

Doubtless governments were hoping Gen. 'X' were going to move back in with their parents thus negating the costs for care and social housing.
But many won't because they had to move further afield for work in the first place.
